House of EdTech is 260+ episodes of practical advice on technology in education

🎧 How are teachers using technology? For more than a decade — since 2013 — the House of EdTech podcast, hosted by American educator Christopher Nesi, has helped teachers integrate modern technology into their work without losing sight of their core purpose.

What to expect: Drawing on more than 15 years of practical and academic experience in education and curriculum design, Nesi releases a new episode roughly every two weeks — covering personal reflections and interviews with teachers and prominent figures in edtech from around the world.

How are students benefiting from AI tools? In one of the podcast’s most recent episodes, Nesi hosts high school chemistry teacher Tara Altherr to discuss how to encourage students to use AI as a thinking partner rather than a shortcut to answers. Altherr outlines specific thinking frameworks that push students to question AI-generated responses rather than accepting them as fact — with the primary goal of supporting critical thinking, reflection, and research skills rather than allowing them to atrophy. She also offers practical strategies for preserving the essence of genuine learning in an era when that has never mattered more.

What we liked: Nesi’s style is warm and clear, pitched directly at working teachers — which keeps the delivery straightforward and accessible. With an archive of more than 260 episodes, anyone interested in or working in education will find what they’re looking for. What we appreciated most is that Nesi’s advice travels beyond his own country — any teacher can take his frameworks, insights, and recommendations and apply them practically using tools that are not limited to specific markets.

The verdict: Our only real gripe is the AI-generated episode artwork — and we’ll admit we may be slightly biased there. Otherwise, this is an excellent option for anyone involved in education: teachers, curriculum developers, school owners, and parents alike, particularly for the episodes dedicated to AI, which now occupy more of our collective conversation than almost anything else.
